Of course there is no useful purpose of focusing a non-visible element. The issue I'm having is that this is crashing IE<9 because jquery mobile attempts to focus hidden elements somewhere. (I understand this is not the fault of jquery) I was just curious as to what purpose the offsetWidth condition served.
